Our Man in Europe/Belize, Dave Delacroix: "Three Crosses on Calvary."
1) "AGATHA CHRISTIE on CAMPUS!"
Agatha Christie on Campus? There's always at least THREE MURDERS in her stories.: Russia, China propaganda, U.S.A. too? Victims of their own cultural folly? Nobody gets cancelled out/or FEARS TO without a nemesis? Funny U.K., cheap-ass more than Holland, poor France, complex who always seem to muddy the Geo-Political waters and Serbians, ever ready by default to ignite a new World War, imperial Austria, leave it up to Germany to carry the can whilst Spain goes cannibalistic/Civil War, and Ireland, famine survivors, songs of hometowns & wretched despair; poor Americans, cultures to decipher!? Beyond the old BERLIN WALL, eastern Europe wrestles (even now-post WW2-Soviet retard-dominance) with its crawl/progress, a pathos combined with a sense of religio/fantasy-divinity. AGATHA on Campus. POISON, a KNIFE. A bad alibi? Swiss Bank Accounts & ambivalence will wrap your next holocaust Christmas party! SO MANY SUSPECTS, too many, what verdict? WHO KILLED ME!?...More importantly, your KIDS future...
2) "The Ashes of Love."
...I KNOW that COLD-COLD heart, that cold FIRE EXIT, no escape, that SALAD/REVENGE, served DEEP-FREEZE, that last-cold kiss? I SCENT that Satin dress beguiling a SWISH before an eye, a lipstick smear, I know that incubation before a Banshees ejection, a command before Love's first symphony flounders a lifelong sorrow? I KNOW that Ice-cold Love, a betrayal, a Bela-s nubile throng; prance along my fine young Prince, her RUBICON of Love, crossed? -HER'S, Your Guilt or Mine? Welcome, to your ashes of Love.
3) "The Last Iguana."
...The last of the Iguanas...patrolling my garden by the Canale, green, sultry, despondent, rotting in their splendor, grim, hunted by RALPH the Transgender-Crocodile/local habitat in the mangroves, assuming like REPTILES they portray a demeanor of "homelessness" even under/within a food-abundant Belizean rain Forest? -Reminding me of most EUROPEAN (Paris/anywhere in France/also Germany?) Train Stations: "Give Me some Money/Change!" - the PANHANDLERS/BEGGARS, the fiscal enemy of a Mariachi/Busker/a Songster singing/working for his actual supper? - Who proffer Universal Wisdom, given 5 seconds bout everything except how to get a Job? ...The Last Iguana in my back garden, now we no longer feed (we throw spud peeling in the canal for the fish) have scampered OFF to our Neighbor's Villas to "HURRAH!", I guess, their primal greed... Their PARENTS? Nor them? Like Reptiles, the third Cross on Calvary, a-withered before Heaven's gate?
